Fifteen years as ruler has formed Nadya into the competent leader and woman she is today. Resolute, determined, and intelligent, she chases her goals with all her energy. A large curiosity and thirst for knowledge sees Nadya constantly seeking to further her understanding of her own kingdom and the world around her. She's gained skill as a negotiator, and learned much of politics in her time as Divine. In her personal life Nadya can be captivating and friendly, or flirtatious and humorous as she wishes to be. She may not always have the patience of a saint, but Nadya knows how to wield power and make herself heard. When you're used to having your orders followed, impatience is less of an issue.
With that being said, at times Nadya still feels like the scared child who was first raised to the throne far too young. With no parents to guide her, Nadya relied on the advise of her council, who effectively ruled through her until she was old enough to fully understand their manipulations. Not all her advisers spread their venom in the palace, but those that did created a deep-seated distrust in Nadya. Though outwardly extroverted, she holds people back from getting truly close; weary of friendly smiles hiding ulterior motives. Truthfully, she's also slow to open up to others due to the conflicting guilt which weighs on her shoulders. Though Nadya would never admit this to anyone, she doubts many of the decisions she made which led to war and Chamaeleon's destruction. Nadya doesn't regret defending her nation, but still she has sleepless nights coming to terms with all the lives lost at her command.
To others, Nadya does not easily admit her mistakes, instead she becomes defensive of her past actions. Nor does the ruler take well to being patronised, or having her ideas dismissed. Push her too far and no coercing or negotiating will shift Nadya from her position. She's obstinate, headstrong, and believes in the accuracy of her own opinions. She hates being told what to do, with the phrase 'cut off the nose to spite the face' readily applied to the young woman in more than a few circumstances. A quick temper has ruled Nadya since childhood. She's never been one to quietly tend her wounds, rather, when angered she'll address the problem directly. This occurs in both her personal life and in dealings with other kingdoms. Perhaps, she can be too sensitive at times, seeing insults in poorly phrased, innocent comments. In such cases apologies may come, but reluctantly.

✧Medical knowledge, - understanding the human body is a definite advantage when using her ability. She has an advanced knowledge of how wounds and other ailments can affect a person, as well as non-magical treatments for them.
✦Dancing and singing, - light on her feet and possessing a sweet voice, she's enjoys them in her spare time.
✧Quick study, - she picks up new knowledge relatively quickly, either from books, experience, or learning from tutors. Rarely does she have to ask more than once to understand a new idea.
✦Alcohol consumption, - some claim it's Nadya's second power. She's been known to drink men triple her size under the table.
✧Lack of combat, - it was never even suggested that the Ruler Divine pick up a blade or learn to defend herself. As a result, Nadya knows next to nothing with regards to physical fighting.
✦Pampered, - royal since birth, ruler since childhood. Nadya has never known poverty, nor how to fend for herself.
✧Envious, - jealousy can appear frequently and sour not just Nadya's mood, but her interactions with others too
✦Physical strength, - she skips arms and leg day frequently

✦ Limitations and weaknesses: Currently, physical contact between both parties (injured and the recipient of the wound) must be made while the transfer is underway. Loss of contact with the injured will mean that the wound is not completely healed, while loss of contact with the recipient will mean Nadya will suffer from the injury until she can heal from it or find someone else to take it. The wounds move through Nadya, so she feels the pain and temporarily physically suffers. This can put a large strain on her body and often is a limiting factor for how many she can perform at a time.
Nadya cannot bring back the dead. A dying individual may be saved if she can transfer their injuries to someone in time, but if they die while she is working, the magnitude of the 'healing' could kill Nadya too. The larger the wound, the more time and energy needed. Though Nadya has had years to train, dismemberment of limbs is still just beyond her skill. A hand or fingers may be regenerated slowly with a willing participant, but thus far she tires before being able to finish whole arms and legs. Similarly, she hasn't the skill to transfer mental illnesses yet, and some diseases are limited to healing the symptoms rather than the causes. The destruction of Chamaeloen's gem strengthened her powers, even as it makes it more unstable.

War had been brewing for years, but always tensions had been calmed and battles averted. Not this time. The insult stung too sharply and the apology was not forthcoming. Ophiuchus declared war on Chamaeleon. Armies marched and clashed on their borders, straining the land and its people. Nadya bore the consequences of taking her kingdom to war; shouldered the guilt and responsibility. The number of injured visiting her increased, the Divinus day lengthening each week. She never minded the long hours, even when her body would ache and scream in pain. It was the least she could do.
Then opportunity presented a way to stop the war entirely. Nadya would sacrifice another land for the lives of her people. She gave the order to strike, her word was what saw Chamaeleon's new ruler and gem destroyed. Ophiuchus won the war, the cost Chamaeleon's very life. The guilt is still present, unable to be transferred like the superficial wounds she deals with. She lives with it, still holding her head high, as if daring anyone to question her authority and decisions. History cannot be rewritten, what was done was done, and now she must face the consequences of her actions.
